If humanity spend less time on religion and more time understanding, loving and caring for each other, the voice of the divine would come to the fore.
Religion forces the voice of the divine into the background. It forces the divine to speak through the agency of self-appointed, self-important intermediaries.
It obscures the voice of the divine and cheapens the intimate relationship between the divine and mankind.
It renders redemption to a bargain and the rest to interpretations.
What should be clear and unambiguous is made obscure and confounding.
What should be easy and light is made heavy and onerous.
So that you and I will forever be beholden to the middlemen and made to seem unworthy while they strut in the place of the divine and tell us that heaven is a privilege and hell reserved for you.
Ha, know not they the divine is laughing.

Kluang Town - Click To Visit
Kluang was a sleepy hollow, but is fast becoming a bustling town. You can't miss the bust-shaped gunung Lambak lording over the place and the town is well known for its tv brand coffee powder
Kluang RailCoffee
The Kluang railway station coffee shop, now re-branded Kluang RailCoffee, is well known for its cuppa of coffee and the charcaol grilled piping hot buns oozing with butter and kaya...It used to attract standing-room only crowds. It still does, but the last time I was there it wasn't a good experience for me. The famous coffee had somewhat lost its oomph and even the buns...The shop has a long and noted history being first opened for business in 1938 and the place is now run by the 3rd generation LIm family. I hope the next time I return, the coffee would regain its oomph. Click to read more...
